Easy Beef Pot Pie for Recipe Friday

Last weekend I made a big pot of Beef Stew, one of my favorite cool weather dishes. I started early in the day and actually simmered the beef, celery, and onions in the V-8 and beef broth for about 3 hours before adding the vegetables...

Fruity Bread Pudding for Recipe Friday

Several weeks ago for Recipe Friday I posted a call for bread pudding recipes. My blogging friend Ann posted a recipe in the comments, but I must confess I didn’t try it. One day I just really wanted to make bread pudding and didn’t think...

Grilled Cheese Sandwiches for Recipe Friday

Fall is officially here, and with the cooler weather I start thinking of soup. And nothing goes better next to a hot bowl of tomato or potato soup than a hot, gooey grilled cheese sandwich. My family loves them. They are super easy to make, but...

Hawaiian Burgers and Grilled Potatoes for Recipe Friday

Well, I forgot to take pictures, but we had the yummiest burgers on the Traeger last night. I actually started with pre-made angus burgers from Costco, but you could patty up burgers from fresh hamburger. I’ve actually done that before, and they were good then, too....

Lemon Coconut Cake for Recipe Friday

This cake recipe is not an original, but it is special at our house. It comes from the essential baking cookbook by Murdoch Books, and it has become my son’s signature cake. He has made it at least 5 times, most recently for our anniversary....

Hot Mango Chutney Dip for Recipe Friday

Last Saturday, on my last day in Austin, my Aunt Norma made a delicious dip to go with crackers as part of our lunch. I was a bit puzzled when she started making it, and then when my cousin arrived with the last two ingredients...

Kool-Aid for Recipe Friday

It’s been a crazy week, and I haven’t done much cooking (as in I’ve only cooked once and it’s a recipe I’ve already posted). So I asked my son what I should post for my Friday recipe. He suggested Kool-Aid. (When I typed that while...
